Legal counsel representing federal employees is now being targeted by the Trump administration. Law firms are receiving a clear message that retaliation is possible for those advocating on behalf of individuals or groups opposing the administration’s agenda.

DOGE “seemed unsure” of what USAID programs they cut and is now attempting to reverse some of the cuts, says @propublica.org reporter Brett Murphy. “This is the opposite of a careful review."

Please listen and share—this is a very serious situation. This is extremely alarming! The Trump administration, across two agencies, is considering bringing criminal charges against employees simply for doing their jobs.

Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh think US farmers should be stiffed for billions of dollars owed to them. Where’s the justice in that? These men are owned. Bought and paid for and it should infuriate you.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

Why the continued cuts to Patmos Library? What does asking for budget cuts now mean? This is definitely not the way to be fiscally responsible.

Trump is a draft dodger. Elon never wore any country's uniform. But they fired thousands of VA workers who care for the men and women who served in uniform, and now our nation's heroes can't get the care they need. Thank you @MalloryMcMorrow.bsky.social for standing up for our veterans!

Musk still out there just wrecking the government instead of being in jail feels like a mass psychosis at this point. Like everyone watching the enormous, city-destroying tsunami on the way and discussing their surfing plans.

Know what would be efficient? NOT wasting time, money and energy firing and rehiring federal employees. Another idea? Not doing things that are illegal causing there to be time, money and energy wasted on lawsuits.

Social Security isn't sending checks to dead people over 120. Tariffs aren't beautiful, but they are raising prices on groceries, beer, and cars. Elon Musk is taking away veterans' healthcare and childcare for families. Presidents are supposed to be truth-tellers, not liars.

Many reasons why the feds need to keep science staff. Invasive species & water know no boundaries. The quagga mussel is in at least 17 states & Canada. There needs to be strong cooperative programs & research to deal with invasives. 🌊🌊 @alltooclearfilm.bsky.social www.wpr.org/environment/...

This is all lies. Reporting has made clear that - Food and health spending is still paused, or contracts have been cancelled entirely (e.g. Ready-to-use therapeutic food for starving children) - Money owed for work done during Biden still hasn't gone out - Musk's people are the blockers

If DOGE really wanted to cut out wasteful spending they would just eliminate the Republican tax cut they wanna give billionaires that will cost $4.5 trillion over a decade. Problem solved.
